First, separate the negative and positive integers (put them into two separate groups). If there is a zero, you can put it in its own group - or put it into the same group with the positive integers. Negative integers come first, then zero, then positive integers.

For positive integers:

  • An integer with less digits comes before an integer with more digits.
  • For integers with the same number of digits, look at the first digit. The integer with the smaller digit in this position comes first.
  • If the first digit is the same, look at the second digit. If those are equal, look at the third digit, etc.

For negative integers, it is the other way round - for example, an integer with MORE digits comes first.

Explain two ways you can use a number line to order the integers –3, +1, and –10?

Sample Response: Order by value: On a number line, the integers to the left are less than the integers to the right. Order by magnitude: On a number line, the integers farther from zero have a greater magnitude. Least to greatest value: –10, –3, +1. Least to greatest magnitude: +1, –3, –10.
